800 poliser på 350 paraddeltagare?

Så här skriver "Save Baltic Pride"-gruppen på facebook:

Dear All, the Lithuanian Supreme Administrative Court has just ruled that Baltic pride is allowed to go ahead tomorrow!!

A cap on numbers has been put in place, so a maximum of 350 people are allowed to march, flanked by 800 security officials.

This is a great step forward for LGBT Equality in Lithuania.

Many thanks for all your support, it really has made a difference over here, and the organisers are very greatful.

Yours in Pride and Unity,

Fantastiskt att paraden blir av. Men det är alltså bara 350 personer som får paradera. Och kring oss 800 säkerhetstjänstemän/poliser runt oss! Bra med rigorös säkerhet - men märkligt att begränsa antalet som får ha mötesfrihet på det sättet. Vad tycker ni?
